### Summary of the issue you are facing:

Hi

In the past there was feature that when I oppened image/photo, it put me in that folder. Now this does not happen. It is latest version of nextcloud. It is anoying due to that, I clicke image and and got into folder autof\*\*maticly, but now i have a problem to find tht folders!!!

### Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!):

1. 
2. 
3. 

### Log entries

#### Nextcloud

Please provide the log entries from your Nextcloud log that are generated during the time of problem (via the _Copy raw_ option from _Administration settings-\>Logging_ screen or from your `nextcloud.log` located in your data directory). Feel free to use a pastebin/gist service if necessary.

```auto
PASTE HERE

```

#### Web Browser

If the problem is related to the Web interface, open your browser inspector _Console_ and _Network_ tabs while refreshing (reloading) and reproducing the problem. Provide any relevant output/errors here that appear.

```auto
PASTE

```

#### Web server / Reverse Proxy

The output of your Apache/nginx/system log in `/var/log/ ____ `:

```auto
PASTE HERE

```

### Configuration

#### Nextcloud

The output of `occ config:list system` or similar is best, but, if not possible, the contents of your `config.php` file from `/path/to/nextcloud` is fine (make sure to remove any identifiable information!):

```auto
PASTE HERE

```

#### Apps

The output of `occ app:list` (if possible).

### Tips for increasing the likelihood of a response

- Use the `preformatted text` formatting option in the editor for all log entries and configuration output.
- If screenshots are useful, feel free to include them.
  - If possible, also include key error output in text form so it can be searched for.

- Try to edit log output only minimally (if at all) so that it can be ran through analyzers / formatters by those trying to help you.

You ignored the template. Guess what, you missed some essential information (e.g. version numbers)!
